About Dr. Niranjan M

Dr. Niranjan M is a Consultant Nephrologist in Bangalore with expertise in diagnosing and managing a wide range of kidney diseases, dialysis-related conditions, renal transplantation, and complex nephrological disorders.

His clinical interests include acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, glomerular diseases, resistant hypertension, electrolyte and acid-base disorders, preventive nephrology, and critical care nephrology.

Dr. Niranjan has extensive expertise in adult and paediatric kidney transplantation, including pre-transplant evaluation, transplant-related care, and comprehensive post-transplant monitoring. His work also includes management of transplant infections and immunological complications.

He is experienced in advanced haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis therapies and provides specialised care for patients requiring long-term renal replacement treatment.

Dr. Niranjan also performs interventional nephrology procedures such as native and transplant kidney biopsies, dialysis catheter interventions, and vascular access planning, creation, and salvage.

His approach focuses on evidence-based kidney care, early diagnosis, prevention of disease progression, advanced renal therapies, and personalised long-term management for patients with both acute and chronic kidney conditions.

Chronic Kidney Disease Management

Comprehensive management of chronic kidney disease with regular monitoring, medication, blood pressure control, dietary guidance, and strategies aimed at slowing progression of kidney damage.

Acute Kidney Injury Treatment

Evaluation and intensive management of sudden deterioration in kidney function caused by infection, dehydration, medications, surgery, critical illness, or other medical conditions.

Hemodialysis

Advanced dialysis treatment used to remove waste products and excess fluid from the blood when the kidneys are unable to perform these functions adequately.

Peritoneal Dialysis

A form of renal replacement therapy that uses the lining of the abdomen to remove waste and excess fluid from the body in selected patients with kidney failure.

Kidney Transplantation

Comprehensive nephrology care for patients undergoing kidney transplantation, including assessment, transplant preparation, and long-term follow-up.

Post-Kidney Transplant Care

Regular monitoring of kidney function, immunosuppressive therapy, infection risk, rejection, and other complications following renal transplantation.

Paediatric Kidney Transplant Care

Specialised nephrology support for children undergoing kidney transplantation, including evaluation, monitoring, and post-transplant care.

Glomerular Disease Treatment

Diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the kidney’s filtering units, including glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and related immune-mediated kidney diseases.

Resistant Hypertension Management

Evaluation and treatment of difficult-to-control high blood pressure, particularly when associated with kidney disease or hormonal and vascular abnormalities.

Electrolyte Disorder Management

Diagnosis and correction of abnormalities involving sodium, potassium, calcium, and other important electrolytes affecting normal body function.

Acid-Base Disorder Management

Evaluation and treatment of abnormal acid or alkaline levels in the blood that may occur with kidney disease and other serious medical conditions.

Critical Care Nephrology

Specialised kidney care for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury, multi-organ dysfunction, severe infections, or other ICU-related renal complications.

Kidney Biopsy

Native and transplant kidney biopsies may be performed to identify the underlying cause of kidney dysfunction and help guide treatment decisions.

Dialysis Catheter Procedures

Interventional procedures involving dialysis catheter insertion, management, or replacement for patients requiring haemodialysis.

Vascular Access Planning and Salvage

Assessment and management of vascular access required for dialysis, including planning, maintenance, and salvage of access that is not functioning properly.

Preventive Nephrology

Early identification of kidney disease risk factors and personalised strategies to protect kidney function and reduce the risk of disease progression.
